Annie and Jon left corporate America to do some world traveling. This blog chronicles their unconventional path and hopefully provides a little inspiration along the way.

land of the big white cloud

Land of the Big White Cloud from Jon Carr on Vimeo.

I promised a New Zealand recap video and it is on the way. In the meantime, Land of the Big White Cloud is a taste of what is to come. I combined several of the time lapse videos from various locations on the North and South Island of New Zealand including Kaikoura, Queenstown, and Mt Ruapehu (aka Mount Doom for you LOTR fans). I hope you enjoy and keep an eye out for the recap that should be out shortly as well as some new photos from South Island. Thanks for all the comments and wonderful emails!

Absolutely AMAZING. I try to explain to people about just how literally AWESOME NZ is and it soo hard to describe. This video is IT! Thank you! I'll be sharing it with friends to help explain just how beautiful it was living there.

Emi, I found it really tough to capture what we were seeing there. The photos never did it justice. Glad you liked it.

Seattle Annie, glad you liked. Great suggestion. We will see if we can send it. Maybe they will give me a job? Hope all is well.

I would watch any TV series you produce in this manner Jon. Seriously. You capture some of my favorite things in videography these days, and I work for Lucasfilms. We see a lot of cool shit on a weekly basis, but you really knock it out of the park with every video you do.
